Hell is our creation, and we create hell by trying to do the impossible. Heaven is our nature, it is our spontaneity. It is where we always are.

More quotes by Rajneesh
Never misunderstand seriousness for sincerity. Sincerity is very playful, never serious. It is true, authentic, but never serious. Sincerity does not have a long face, it is bubbling with joy, radiating with an inner joyousness.
Rajneesh
Meditation is nothing but coming to terms with your inner emptiness: recognizing it, not escaping living through it, not escaping being through it, not escaping. Then suddenly the emptiness becomes the fullness of life.
Rajneesh
The whole zen attitude is to bring to your notice the fact that there is no effort to be made. The zen attitude is that of effortlessness.
Rajneesh
Life is happiness and unhappiness. Life is day and night, life is life and death. You have to be aware of both.
Rajneesh
Hell and heaven are within you, both gates are within you. When you are behaving unconsciously there is the gate of hell when you become alert and conscious, there is the gate of heaven.
Rajneesh
There is no need of any competition with anybody. U R yourself, and as U R, U R perfectly good. Accept urself
Rajneesh
Guilt simply says that you are a sinner. And the feeling of shame simply shows you that you need not be a sinner, that you are meant to be a saint. If you are a sinner it is only because of your unconsciousness you are not a sinner because the society follows a certain morality and you are not following it.
Rajneesh
Jealousy is almost like a shadow of love. If we can grow our love, it takes over the whole energy of jealousy and transforms it into love. It is an alchemical change.
Rajneesh
Real love makes you more of an individual. It does not efface your individuality, it gives you individuality. Real love is very respectful.
Rajneesh
Love is a state of being it has nothing to do with anybody else. One is not in love, one is love.
Rajneesh
Here, fire turns into water Here, the dancing of the rain declares the sun. There's no opposition in existence, no contradiction Everything supports everything else.
Rajneesh
And this sensitivity will create new friendships for you - friendships with trees, with birds, with animals, with mountains, with rivers, with oceans, with stars. Life becomes richer as love grows.
Rajneesh
Responsibility is awareness, alertness, consciousness. Ego is just unconsciousness. They cannot coexist. As you grow more conscious you grow more towards light, and anything belonging to the world of darkness starts disappearing. Ego is nothing but darkness.
Rajneesh
`Freedom` means freedom from the mind. Then you are simply in a silence, and in that silence you melt, you merge with the whole. And to melt and merge with the whole is to be holy. Not by fasting, not by torturing, but by becoming one with the whole, one becomes holy.
Rajneesh
The body has to be looked after: one has to be very caring about the body and very loving to the body. And then, its very spontaneity purifies it, makes it holy.
Rajneesh
It is within your hands to be frustrated in life or not. Just your expectations should become smaller, smaller, smaller, and in the same proportion the frustration will become smaller. A day will come when there will be no expectation then you will never come across any frustration.
Rajneesh
Meditation is not doing something. But you cannot take a jump immediately into non-doing. So I suggest that you make your doing total. Move into it so deeply, and so totally that suddenly the doing drops, and you alone are left, just existing.
Rajneesh
Meditation simply means a state of no-thought, awareness without the process of thought, just pure, mirror-like awareness, with no thoughts passing in the mind.
Rajneesh
Easy is right. Begin right and you are easy. . . . Easy is right means natural is right, effortlessness is right, egolessness is right.
Rajneesh
The beauty is in finding, not in what you find that is just an excuse.
Rajneesh
